HSLDA is pleased to pass along the following apology from Subwayrestaurants.

To HSLDA:

We at SUBWAY restaurants place a high value on education,regardless of the setting, and have initiated a number of programs andpromotions aimed at educating our youth in the areas of health andfitness.

We sincerely apologize to anyone who feels excluded by our currentessay contest. Our intention was to provide an opportunity for traditionalschools, many of which we know have trouble affording athletic equipment, to winequipment. Our intent was certainly not to exclude homeschooled children fromthe opportunity to win prizes and benefit from better access to fitnessequipment.

To address the inadvertent limitation of our current contest andprovide an opportunity for even more kids to improve their fitness, we will sooncreate an additional contest in which homeschooled students will be encouragedto participate. When the kids win, everyone wins!

I think the apology is probably as sincere as they get these days. We'll be buying a meatball sub and a BMT with everything later this weekend! Thanks Subway!

About Me

I really enjoy scrapping, reading, crafts of all kinds, cooking - pretty much all the home arts. I believe a woman's place is in the home as much as possible. More than anything, I aspire to be a Godly woman as defined by Proverbs 31 and Titus 2.
